    3 Reminders for Stranger and Pigrams (1 Peter 2:9-12) Jim Murrell

    Play Episode Listen Later Apr 14, 2025 49:03


    Have you ever noticed how forgetful we can be? We forget birthdays, appointments, even the names of people we just met. But spiritually speaking, forgetfulness can be dangerous. In this episode of The Preacher's Vault Podcast, we look at 1 Peter 2:9-12 and discover three powerful reminders every Christian needs to hear. God calls us to remember — not just what He's done, but who we were, who we are, and who we're meant to be. → Remember Our Past Situation — we were lost, detached, and desperate without Him. → Remember Our Present Standing — we are now a chosen, holy, and peculiar people in Christ. → Remember Our Potential Service — we are called to live pure lives and be powerful witnesses for Him. This lesson will challenge you to stop and reflect — Are you living like a stranger and pilgrim in this world? Are you remembering who you are in Christ? Tune in today and be reminded of your identity, your purpose, and your calling as a child of God.

    In this inspiring episode of “Mustard Seed Faith, Moving Mountains,” presented by Jim Murrell, we explore how the tiniest seed of faith can transform your life. Drawing on powerful passages from Matthew, Luke, and Mark, we delve into the mystery of faith revealed in scripture—from the profound lessons of Peter stepping out of the boat to the relentless determination of the woman with the issue of blood. We break down faith into three dynamic elements: its inherent power (as seen in the surprising strength of the mustard seed), its incredible potential to grow when nurtured, and its promise to provide when acted upon. Discover why Jesus emphasizes genuine, quality faith over sheer size, and learn how trusting Him in small things can set the stage for life-changing miracles. Whether deepening your spiritual walk or looking for a fresh perspective on trusting God, join us as we uncover timeless truths that prove even the smallest seed of faith can move mountains.

    In Times Like These…We Need the Bible A Deep Dive into Nehemiah 8:1-14 The world can feel like a chaotic and uncertain place. We're bombarded with news of division, disaster, and despair. It's easy to feel lost and hopeless. But in times like these, there is one thing that can offer us hope, guidance, and comfort: the Bible. In this episode of The Passage Podcast, we'll take a deep dive into Nehemiah 8:1-14. This passage tells the story of the Israelite people returning to their homeland after years of exile. They've rebuilt the walls of their city, but their hearts are still broken. They're feeling lost and discouraged. So, they do what any good people would do in times of trouble: they turn to God's Word. They gather together and ask Ezra the scribe to read the Law of Moses to them. And as Ezra reads, something amazing happens. The people's hearts are stirred. They weep for their sins, but they also rejoice in God's forgiveness and love. They're reminded of who they are and what God has called them to do. This passage has a powerful message for us today. Just like the Israelites, we're living in a time of great uncertainty. But the Bible can be our anchor in the storm. It can remind us of God's promises, give us hope for the future, and guide us on the path of righteousness.

    In this sermon, Aaron Dodson explores the concept of Christian persecution. He argues that, as followers of Jesus, we should expect to be hated by the world. This is because the world is hostile to God and His ways. However, Dodson also reminds us that our hatred is not without hope. In Christ, we have victory over the world. We are not alone in our suffering, and we can find comfort in the knowledge that we are ultimately headed for glory. This sermon is perfect for anyone who is struggling with the reality of Christian persecution. It is also a great reminder of the hope that we have in Christ.
